I'm an American Jewish male of Eastern European descent, born in Michigan in 1960, married (to The Ritual Artist) since 1987, with two children (The Multimedia Artist and The Artist Formerly Known As). I work as a professor of legal studies, teaching general legal principles to business and technology students in Rhode Island. I started writing fan fiction in 2006, and started writing original fiction in 2007.

Nowadays the public posts on this journal mostly concern fandom, fan fiction and politics. Although I don't write much fanfic anymore, what FF I do write appears here or on Metafic before it goes anywhere else.

There are some locked posts that refer to my original fiction (including early drafts) and personal life, and I have another LJ that deals strictly with my original fiction. Feel free to inquire with me about those.
